Hi,

We (the new xpdf maintainers) were caught a bit off guard by the
freeze announcement. We had been waiting for the poppler maintainers to
fix a release-critical a bug [0] that has been blocking xpdf from
entering testing for a while now.  I submitted a fix to their svn over a
month ago, but nothing has happened, so I am planning to do a sponsored
NMU instead [1] to get things going.

xpdf 3.02-9 has already been in unstable for greater than 10 days, so it
should be OK to transition to testing as soon as the poppler issue is
fixed. However, this version is still a bit buggy, and we were hoping to
correct that with a subsequent -10 upload.  The queued changes for this
version are available in our git repo [2]. Most are fairly minor/modest,
but I did have to completely rework the control fields based on a
request to use breaks instead of conflicts.

The plan is to get the poppler issue fixed via NMU as soon as possible,
which will let 3.02-9 enter testing (that should be automatic?), then
we will need your OK to upload 3.02-10.

Please let us know if this plan is OK.

Best wishes,
Mike
